Do You Ever Become Obsessed With A Character And You Just Go "of Fucking Course Its That One" At Yourself

Writing Tips for Writer’s Block - Making Your Writing Palace

So here is a collection of some pointers that I use when I get stuck while writing (which as some of you know happens literly all the time)— I hope it helps anyone else who is struggling! These work for me but they might not work for everyone! I urge you to try them out!

Make Your Writing Palace

settle your mind and create a space for your thoughts and ideas to flow

Make sure you are comfortable in your surroundings wherever that might be. I personally prefer to be tucked into my comfy armchair with a blanket!

Take a shower!! Might sound weird but if I feel dirty or oily or gross I can’t not write!!! Go take a shower, get clean!!

Get a snack and/or drink. Fuel for your brain!!! My favorite writing snack is tea with cookies, scones, biscotti, or any other pasty type of thing.

Write when you are alone! I can tell you that you will not accomplish much if your surrounded with family or friends. Distractions are your enemy!!!!!

Pick a time to write! I prefer writing early early morning or at late night (probably bc those are the time my world and family are silent and still sleeping).

If you are stuck on a specific scene try to imagine yourself there and as your character. Or even go to that place irl—idk if y’all got forests near you but if that’s where your scene takes place march your ass down there, find a nice tree to climb, and write. (Just don’t get wacked, I would be very sad to hear that my tip got you murdered lol)

Get background noise! I personally find songs with lyrics to be too distracting when I try to write. I use an app: Relax Meditation (it’s free). You can pick whatever sounds you want and lump them together and into like a song/mix. I usually play the sounds I need to try and immerse myself into the enviroment of my character. It really helps!!

Don’t keep stopping to change words or think “I’m being to repetitive in my language” —just keep going and fix it later. At the end of ur writing session go back and google some synonyms!!!

Put down some bullet points of what you wanna write—give yourself a mini outline to work with.

Do not write something that you don’t wanna write!!! (Unless it’s for school then you kinda gotta) if someone requested a mushy love scene between two characters that you just loath DONT DO IT!!! It will probably be shit bc your heart is just not in it.

Try changing up what your writing! If you are stuck on your fanfic/book/essay/whatever and just can’t look at it any longer, try writing a one shot or drabble of something completely different.

Take a break and pet a furrybaby (or a slimy one idk what kind of wacko pets y’all have)!!

I hope this helped for some of you guys! I love you all so much and don’t ever give up on writing!!

KEEP GOING, KEEP IMPROVING, YOU GOT THIS!

I wanted to meme before the big day.

Not yet, Brutus.. not yet..

each day is another day jenna marbles does not acknowledge the fact that she produced the maximum fucking ride movie and each day i rot a little bit more and am convinced it never really happened

normalize making sounds at eachother. if i can meow at you unprompted ESPECIALLY if you meow back we are best friends. meow mrrow

i haven’t seen anyone talk about how well venom 2 used it’s One “Fuck” Allowance since it’s pg-13. my entire theater laughed for 15 seconds straight when cletus was giving a somber speech or whatever at the end with eddie going along with it and venom said “FUCK THIS GUY” and Ate him. there was a lot of good comedy in this movie but that was TOP TIER.

This may seem silly but this is what I needed to hear in 2016, so I’m going to say it now. It’s okay to feel hopeless or angry or scared or betrayed or even just mildly nauseous. However you feel is the right reaction for you. You’re just not allowed to kill yourself. You are too good, too valuable, too important for this to be the thing that takes you. Yes the world is a mess, but taking one good person out of it isn’t going to make it any better.

So take care of yourself. Wrap yourself in that blanket. Get that hug. Eat that mug cake. Find your life preserver whatever it may be and keep going. You are stronger than you realize.

Deciding to do something when you’re feeling defeated is hard. If all you can take care of is you today, focus on doing that. Tomorrow or a week from now you can look at what your community needs to do to weather the storm in the long term. Yes communities are hurting now, but having to grieve one more person isn’t going to make anyone’s life any better. Please keep going. Please don’t let this election take you too.

I see some of you trying to justify cops tear-gassing children, running people over with their cars, shooting people in the head with rubber bullets at close range, pulling people's masks down and macing them, literally throwing women down, slashing people's tires and shattering their windshields as they're in their own vehicle, beating and killing elderly protesters, etc... They're doing it to these people, who are protesting the systematic racism and police brutality and demanding justice for George Floyd.... And I want you to know that if you think cops are right for doing this, ANY of this, then block me. If it bothers you that people are rioting and damaging stores ownes by giant corporations more than it does that cops are doing what they are to these protesters and are freely murdering black and brown people, block me. If you think it's right for the President to refer to white people loaded with guns bitching about haircuts as "good people" and black and brown protesters as "thugs" and allow the law enforcement/national guard to open fire on them, block me.

I will have no fucking bootlickers and racists on my fucking blog.

Two weeks until the Ides of March!

god please to every person of color, every queer person, every community that has been endangered and harassed due to trump’s disgusting rhetoric these past nine years, know that you deserve to live, no matter what happens in the next four years. god please know that
